Also around 1935 the Columbus introduced a new arrow clip, an obvious imitation of the one used by [[Parker]] on the [[Vacumatic]] model. The new clip was progressively used on many different models, but it was applied primarily on the top models marked ''Extra''. In 1936, as a result of the good commercial success achieved by its pens, [[Columbus]] moved its activities into the new headquarters of Via Lamarmora in Milan, where more space allowed to meet the increased production needs.

Oltre alla linea di maggior pregio costituita dalle varie serie marcate ''Columbus Extra'' l'azienda produsse anche delle penne di prezzo inferiore denominate semplicemente ''Columbus'', identificate anch'esse da un codice numerico. Nella produzione della seconda metà degli anni '30 spiccano fra queste la serie delle [[Columbus 3x|30]] e la [[Columbus 55]]. All'incirca nel 1940, anche se c'è chi ne riporta le origini alla seconda metà degli anni '30, venne introdotta la [[Columbus 25]] una stilografica di forma compatta con una clip sagomata a forma di lancia stilizzata e con caricamento a [[pulsante di fondo]]. Pur non essendo marcata come tale, la penna era fornita con decorazioni con vera sul cappuccio molto eleganti, analoghe a quelle presenti sui modelli di pregio delle serie ''[[Columbus Extra]]''.  

In addition to the top line of the various series marked ''Columbus Extra'' the company also produced lower price pens simply marked as ''Columbus'', also identified by a numerical code. In the production of the second half of the '30s stand out among these the [[Columbus 3x|30]] and [[Columbus 55]] lines. Around 1940, even if there is who gives the origins to the second half of the '30s, the [[Columbus 25]] was introduced to a compact pen with a  stylized spear-shaped clip using a [[button filler]] system. Although not marked as top line, the pen was provided with very elegant band decorations on the cap, similar to those found on the top models of the ''Columbus Extra'' series.
